  • Abstract
    The present paper concerns the activity of the microbic biofuel element which oxidizes ethanol. The intact bacterial cells of Gluconobacter oxydans or their membrane fractions were used as a bioelectrocatalyst. Thermoexpanded graphite (TEG) was used as a material of an electrode. The used strain of bacterial cells, as well as carbon composition types will make a basis of a prototype of a microbic biofuel element at development of the block of transformation and accumulation of electric energy.
